UND Educational Scholarship Series features SMHS Faculty with fellowships available in 2025
The UND Faculty Instructional Development Committee (FIDC) has announced its Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Fellows Showcase series. In each session, a selection of the 2024 FIDC SoTL Fellows will present their research process and findings to help faculty conceptualize how they might gather data to better understand and address teaching and learning questions in their own classes and programs.
Please note especially the April 1, 2025, session presenters: Dr. Amanda Haage (Biomedical Sciences) and Dr. Karrianna Iseminger (Occupational Therapy).
Whether you’re interested in educational scholarship and/or interested in becoming a 2025 FIDC SoTL Fellow, we encourage you to attend these informative presentations. Each session is virtual.
Additionally, the hope is that faculty new to SoTL will find inspiration and consider applying for the FIDC SoTL fellowship this spring. Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Fellowship applications are due April 22, 2025, but there are time-sensitive requirements that must be completed prior to application, so please review the details right away if you’re interested in this opportunity.
